Global Differences in Managing Patients with Aortic Valve Disease
Update: 2024-11-19
Description
This episode delves into the pressing need to reevaluate the management strategies for Aortic Valve Disease (AVD) worldwide. With a focus on South Asian and Sub-Saharan African nations, the discussion highlights how low-income countries predominantly rely on surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) using mechanical valves.
The episode explores the unique challenges faced in these regions, where patients are generally younger compared to those in high-income countries, and the disease often stems from rheumatic origins. The conversation aims to shed light on the disparities in treatment approaches and the necessity for tailored solutions that address the distinct characteristics of AVD in diverse global contexts.
